desired to have called or sent me a
line or kind message.
Not your health certainly, which
has enabled you to attend to your
business all last week. Since the
report of your engagement was first
circulated you have drawn yourself

One OF your strongest arguments was
your health. When you told me
you were not in state of physical

On the arrival of the S. S. Mari
posa the O. S. S. wharf became
densely crowded with people, most
of whom were anxious to get glimpse
of Burke. Burke is a small-boned
man Of medium height. His legs and
chest are remarkably developed,
while his arms are surprisingly
slender. His hands are small and
his carriage is not that of a bull
pugilist. In conversation Jack
Burke is decidedly gentlemanly. His
voice is soft, with an interesting
touch of the Irish brogue. lie was

Dear Mr.. GibsOn-When reports
first came to me of the dcnials you
made regarding our engagement, |

you declared to me emphatically
that you had never denied it. When
you called upon me Monday last you
treasured me, that / had perfect faith
and confidence in all you said. Par

confidence is little shaken. Since
/ saw you ! have heard so much, it

explanation. cannot and will not
be placed in this equivocal position.
You can never accuse me OF being
unreasonable. | have deferred to
your wishes as much as was consis-
tent with what was justice to me,
and ! have not been selfish in this
matter. But now think OF myself,
for if what ! hear is true, you have
given me no protection ut all, a
strange manner for man TO act to-
wards Il woman whom he has
protested to love and has pro-
missed to marry. ! still feel that
when l see you, you can disabuse
my mind of any injustice done me
through you, therefore | shall re-
strain my feelings and still trust in
you. There is only one way to clear
a mystery, that is by an explanation.
Let me see you as soon as possible.
As you did not go to Waikiki as you
told me you intended, ! presume you
will not go this week until the wealth
er is more settled. Try and let me
see you this morning You can
manage to snatch few moments
from the office, and | shall be in
a fever of Impotence until / do see
you. ! will remain at home and ex-
pect you.
Hoping that you are well and that
you will comply with my request
withou delay.

sparring exhibition in the Hawaiian

Vandalia amateurs took part in the
tournament, and showed considera-
BILE skill with the gloves. There were
also fine exhibitions of wrestling by
japanese. Mr.. Burke had a friendly
bout of four rounds with Mr. James
Welsh which terminated the show.
